Chords with lyrics

Intro:
E MajorE

Verse:
A augmentedA   E MajorE
Cheap perfume and painted faces
        BB  A augmentedA  E MajorE
Fallen angles fill the places
 A augmentedA                  E MajorE
Where I go when my troubles pull me down
 E MajorE
All the lies I know they'll tell me
     E MajorE          BB  E MajorE
And the time that they will sell me
    F# minorF#m             BB
For a while I'll be the biggest man in town
     E MajorE
Back at home in bed she's crying
             E MajorE
For her love for me is dying
      A augmentedA                 E MajorE
But she'll pray I make it safely through the night
      BB
When the mornin' sun starts showing
     A augmentedA
To her bedside I'll be going
      E MajorE        BB        E MajorE
And she'll hold me while I face the morning light
        E MajorE
And I'll make promises
E MajorE
Promises to change
         G# minorG#m
I'll make her promises swear I'll rearrange
     A augmentedA
And I'll start giving all the love she needs
E MajorE    BB     A augmentedA BB E MajorE
If only she will stay
E MajorE
Once again she'll reasure me and
  E MajorE
I believe her love will cure me
   A augmentedA                 E MajorE
And I'll fall asleep with tears on my face
E MajorE
Lord I know she's just a woman
     E MajorE
And her love can't last forever
   F# minorF#m
And someday soon I know she'll
     D#mD#m   BB
Leave without a trace
        E MajorE
For broken' promises
Will tear her dreams apart
       G# minorG#m
Just token promises will someday break her heart
       A augmentedA
And for the last time she'll hold me when I cry
   E MajorE    BB
And while I'm sleeping
    A augmentedA   BB  C# minorC#m  BB C# minorC#m D#mD#m
She'll quietly say goodbye
